for myself. I know it works for some people but for many people it actually diminishes them, reduces them.

I don't believe that you have to be married to make a good parent and a child born after wedlock is no more secure than one born before wedlock.

I love my daughter and would do anything for her. She knows that she is loved by both her parents and she feels secure even though was born out of wedlock. For her it is not an issue.

Marriage may work for some people and I say that's fine. It should be something that two people want to enter into and not something they feel they should do in order to fit in with society or with their peers.

Marriage is not a one size fits all solution and it never has been even when divorce rates were low.

Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary. Mahatma Gandhi
